One Word ~ 2014

By



This graphic has lots of words, but they are all components of my ONE word for 2014 …. Steadfast.

I want to be faithful in my time with the Lord.
I want to be committed to growing the strength of my marriage.
I want to remain dependable to my children.
I want to be trustworthy to my friends.
I want to be reliable to those whom I have made commitments.
I want to help make steady progress in our becoming debt free.
I want to be devoted to fulfilling my savings plans.
I want to be a staunch devotee to exercising, eating healthy, and taking care of my body.
I want to be a true visionary in all of the atmospheres where I teach.
I want to produce solid reviews for the Schoolhouse Review Crew.
I want to keep God as a constant companion and confidante.
I want to be loyal to my call to teach my children and give it all I have each day.


Steadfast.

    That is an excellent word choice, and one that I am sure you will be successful with in 2014. Your posts yesterday and today have inspired me to choose a word for myself, too. I am still deciding on it, or I would share it now. The honesty and genuineness of your blog is so refreshing. Happy 2014! :)

A New Year, the Same Me

By
Happy 2019! It is that day of the year where everybody is up extra early starting their new exercise routine, eating only healthy foods, cracking open the pages of a new planner and Bible study, and debuting their Word for the year. You chuckle or roll your eyes, but you are doing at least three of these things. By the way, so am I. So let's start with the Word of the Year. Mine this year is Lagom. It's the Swedish word for "not too little, not too much, just right". It's a concept of being, doing or having just enough. So let's rewind to last New Year's Day. My Word was Might. And that's how I planned to tackle my year. And, I did. I worked out hard, I mommed hard, I traveled hard, I worked hard. And it was a good season. It prepared the way for this year. I accepted the Challenge I set for myself and succeeded. But, I don't need to keep up that pace. I am at a place in my life where I can kind of sit back and enjoy my life without f...

Science Sunday ~ Hmmm ... Let Me Think About It!

By
This week in our study of the Human Body , Brynne moved on to the Nervous System . Our first stop was a Pamela Hill Nettleton book called, Think, Think, Think: Learning About Your Brain . As part of our discussions about the brain , and the fact that it's the BOSS of the body, we discussed the importance of the spinal cord . We did a hands on spinal cord project by alternating gummy Life Savers and wagon wheel pasta on a pipe cleaner. We talked about why there was the "squishy" stuff in between the vertebra and how the back can bend and sway because of it. We completed "The Brynne" by adding the stomach, small intestine and large intestine, from our study last week of the Digestive System (although I just realized I have the large intestine coming out of the stomach, when the small intestine should be) and the brain and spinal cord. We are now done talking about the parts of the body and will conclude our study of the Human Body with a two-day unit ...
